The reconstruction of the ruined buildings of Gaza is a secondary consideration. The real issue is how do you reconstruct a society which freely elected Hamas knowing their creed is violence, fanaticism and religious and racial supremacy. A society from which 4,000 civilians freely took part in the murder, plunder and abduction frenzy of October 7. A society from which thousands lined the streets to abuse and mutilate captives and then kept some as slaves in their own homes. A society that cheers as three emaciated, tortured Jewish men now resembling liberated concentration camp inmates are subjected to still more indignity and torment. A society that welcomes as prized assets convicted child killers, rapists, mass murderers that any other society would prefer to be rid of. That is the reconstruction the world needs to address.
